In this nice quick tutorial we look at setting up and customizing a device map for the AKAI LPD8 midi controller.
Accessing raw data, creating a specific device map for the pads and dials and them implementing them into a quick use case.
Enjoy!

If anyone here is thinking "there must be a better way to populate these mappings", I discovered a spreadsheet formula that I was able to use to automatically generate all the messages, it goes something like =CONCATENATE( "ba " , DEC2HEX(ROW(), 2), " --"). You'll need to adjust the strings and the first param to the DEC2HEX depending on your starting point. Exporting the spreadsheet as a tsv, one can navigate to /local/midi/userdevices/template and populate the dat tables via Ctrl+e, pasting the contents of the tsv.

Hello thx for this tutorial! I just can't find how to import a custom midimap in a new project (or even better, have it in every new project by default...) If anyone as a clue...

Awesome tutorial! I was wondering if there was any way to save the new device mapping to the MIDI mapper in order to open in another project file? Thanks!

Came here with the same question. Did you find a good solution? Best I can find is creating a custom new project file that has this saved in it already or exporting the data as table that can be referenced.

Matt Ragan gives a pretty good answer to this in Part 3 of his MIDI Mapping series. Here's a playlist link. TLDR you can export a custom component TOX with your MIDI mappings for each new controller then just import it into different projects as you please. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jrKVmst70qymmGQ.html

How can I change the range of the slider between 0 and 1 like in the video? Mine works from 0 to 127 in the select chop. Thanks a lot for the tutorial by the way!

I'm kinda new to this but maybe you could route it through a function to reduce the range

@@Under1The2Bridge3 I solved it a few months ago, by using the math chop prior to the select chop. By the way, this video helped me to use TD with midi, so thanks a lot
